DURING the recent game between the OSh-
kosh and Duluth clubs, played on the
grounds of the former, the wind was travel
ing at the rate OF A miles an hour or course
the dust was blowing more or less, so that it
was difficult matter to pay under the cir
cumstances. During the progress of tine
game no less than three flies were knocked
up in the air which should have fallen into
the hands of the centre fielder. When they
reached q certain altitude, however, the wind
caught them and blew them back with such
rapidity that they were either caught by tine
pitcher OF one of the iniellerS. The catcher
also had an assist in like way catching fly
with his back against a back-stop, which un-
der ordinary circumstances would have been
captured by the pitcher. In the face of all
this the game was a remarkably close one,
Oshkosh finally winning by a score of ) to :.

A BOY riding horse in race at
Ogden, Utah, passed the winning post,
and after running a short distance
turned sharply into a wagon which
was standing by the track with the
brake set. The foot-bar of the brake
was on level with the boys ear, and
upon this bar the boy was caught.
The upper portion of his ear was pene-
trated and the iron ranged backward
along the base of the skull. The horse
passed from under its rider, who was
left dangling in the air. He is ex-
pected To die of conclusion of the brain.

Children'S Shoes

There never existed custom more OBJ
jectionable on the score of taste and
cleanliness than that of rigging up chill
tircn in white kid shoes 1t has grown
obsolete with the better judgment Of the
people, and we only now and then see a
reminder of it. A shoe should be made
with reference to its liability to come
in contact with things which may soil
it. Besides, light colorcd shoe magni-
hcs the size of the foot
In some families shoes for children
that arc denoted best" are laid aside
and kept for full dress wear. This is
mistaken notion. The feet of children
are constantly growing, and if the shoes
"fit" at first they will soon become too
snug for comfort, and create pain and
possible deformitics. 1t is better to let
the youngsters have the good of the
shoes before they outgrow them Shoe

MARYLAND oystermen formerly
worked hard in the winter and early
spring ant lived in the summer on the
money thus earned. They had plenty
of food but very little money. The
Maryland steamboat company built a
wharf at Roaring Point and issued q
circular advising the men to cultivate
their land and sell the products. The
advice was followed, and each trip OF
the boat from the wharf now carries
away shipments from $50 consignors.
The oystermen at other points are fol-
lowing the example.

THE LITTLE PEOPLE.
The Opera House Crowded 10 Hear
and See Them.

Tho opera house was jammed ana
crowded last night with little and big
people. The % rent admission cut no
figure in the attendance and there was
not heard a kick about it in all that
great crowd, Superintendent STAN
berry, assisted by the teachers pre-
sented an extensive and well arranged
programme, and it is to the credit of
both pupil and teacher that what was
done was exceedingly well done.
Those who took rart in the
exercises were interested and were
well up in their parts.
The flag drill was exceedingly fine
Red Riding Hood was well rendered.
These two performances indicate the
vast possibilities of childhood and
If shaped and influenced in the right
direction these possibilities may ac-
quire unbounded distinction.
The Peake sisters was great sue
cess, and they made pleasing impress
sion on the audience. They should
be induced to make another appear
ance.
The solos and recitations were all
well done, and especially for children.
The galleries were too noisy.
Chcstnuts, "rats" and "cat calls "
were too numerous, and should not be
allowed to occur again. The school
board should make it their duty to
have officers in the galleries who will
keep order.
There was little ripple of excite
ment during the performance. Some
how a section of scenery became de-
tached from its place and fell forward
towards the fooilights, but those in
charge were so prompt in their action,
that the scenery was snatched from its
dangerous position so quickly that 1t
did not have time TO ignite.
Take the performance and every
thing connected with it, and last
nights exhibition was a success. 1t
will be better tonight.

Mrs. Wiley.

This much written up woman and
convict enjoys distinction in this limo
to the bent of her ambition. AT least
so il would seem from her action now.
She is resigned. She does not show
any more evidence of fight. She is
willing to go to the peniIentiary and
serve out her time. She says she was
assisted in her escape and flight, but
she will not give her assistant away or
tell who entertained her while she
was in Dallas. She says her pursuers
passed her several times while she
was concealed under the Santa Fe rail-
road bridge, where she robed in mans
attire. She is inclined to regard
her escape as a huge joke upon the
officers and seems to enjoy the whole
thing hugely.

CONNECTiCUT'S TRIBUTE.

Resolutions Adopted by the Connecticut
House of Representatives on the Death
OF Mr. Beech her, Son of the state.
HARTFORD, Conn, March 9-The House
to-day passed the following:
Resoined, By this House, that it has heard
with profound sorrow Of the death OF the EN-
1nent divine, Henry Ward Beecher
Resotred, That inasmuch as he was native
OF Connectlcut, and an example of what supe-
rlor abilities and genius can attain under our
free Constitution, it is the sense Of this Assem-
bly, that our heartfelt sympathy be rendered at
this time to the family of the eminent divine.
Resotoed, That irrespective Of any pride we
may feel IN claiming the late Mt Beecher as n
native OF this State. we recognize in him the
peerless pulpit orator Of the century, "a man of
transcendent genus and commanding and
benehcent influences upon the age in which he
mas inquired SO conspicuousy That we regard
HIM as a man who blended into the courage of
his convictions the fulness of a genial shirt
and the wealth of a boundless charity. and that
In his death the cause of charity itself has suf-
Tered an lrreparable loss, and the free and en-
llghtened religious influence of our times ~,
expoundef OF the Christian faith that com
manded universal respect where his ro;7a was
known.
